what's so personal about that? i mean, all they're gonna do is...i can't even do it! but i will say i was leafing through a james herriot book last night and two words, out of the whole book, jumped out at me:"fleshy scrotum".

well, the fun started for me, when I walked into the examination room. The first thing I saw when I walked into the room was the name brand on the ultrasound machine (remember why I'm here) the name brand was Seamons. Shortly thereafter, the nurse tells me that I'm going to have to shave the morning of my surgery. At that point, I reached up, rubbed my check and said "I just shaved this morning." (Yes, I knew what she was actually talking about.) At which point she paused and said "ahh... I meant down there." I told her "yeah, I know." She looked releaved that I wasn't as stupid as she thought I was a moment before. Then the doctor comes in. Renae tells me women are more accustomed to it, but it was an odd sensation for me to have someone I've known for 5 minutes (and a man I have to add) feeling around on my privates. Then they have to confirm sterility afterward. Guess how they do that!
